Are you an activist or leader in your community?  Do you strive to balance the needs of the world with the needs of your body for rest and rejuvenation?  

This collaborative workshop with Clinical Herbalist Katherine Elmer and Yoga Teacher Gillian Comstock is for anyone who is called to meaningful work in the world and is seeking more tools to enhance and deepen their work.  We will explore the balance of inspiration and anxiety that motivates our efforts, and how that impacts our body, mind and spirit.  Participants will be guided through a series of beginner/moderate yoga postures and learn about (and taste!) herbal/nutritional strategies focused on self-nourishment and enhanced capacity for leadership, creativity and collaboration.

​Gillian Kapteyn Comstock, MA, is the founding co-director of Metta Earth Institute and the Metta Earth project, which integrates regenerative farming, contemplative practices, community living, and sustainability education.  Gillian offers mentoring, program faciliation, and leadership trainings. As a holistic psychotherapist, certified permaculture designer, and advanced yoga guide she synthesizes disciplines to support cultural renewal. She is dedicated to creating sanctuaries for others to experience vibrant presence. With a passion for discovering the wild in mind, body, and earth, she has led yoga retreats, wilderness quests, and trainings in nature sanctuaries around the world. For more than two decades she has been a participant in the Assisi Institute community, which engages in a highly dynamic interdisciplinary investigation of Jungian psychology, creative process, mythology, and the new sciences. A mother of three adult children and grandmother of five, Gillian has lived a life immersed in cooperative community, the gift economy, and innovative social processes resonate with natural systems and wild nature. www.mettaearth.org

2:30-4:30pm in the classroom, 4:30-5:30pm in the yoga studio.
